Guys:
New poster on the forums but long-time lurker...
Anyway, I'm not sure if any of you guys noticed but when you pull down the quick settings menu on the SGH-M919 it only lists 18 buttons instead of the 20 normally found on the GT-i9505. The two buttons missing are "Mobile data" and "Wi-Fi hotspot". I can understand why Wi-Fi hotspot is not included because T-Mobile included their own version of the app in the carrier bloatware. However, it doesn't make sense for them to delete the "Mobile data" toggle.
Any way that we can recover that functionality and add that toggle back into the quick settings menu?
Thanks.
Exactly! Where's "Mobile Data" ?
Thanks

Go to : Settings>more networks>mobile networks
There you can turn data off and on.
Unfortunately there there is no data toggle for it.
May be we will get with some roms .

I don't have my S4 yet so I can't tell you for certain, but CyanogenMod should have this as well.
I figured out how to add it to stock rooted. Heres my thread.

I have the Samsung Galaxy S2 X and I'm on 4.0.3 and certain apps like Poynt/Palmary Weather and some others cause my wifi to just drop and go to 4G, this never happened when I had my Incredible S?
My palmary works fine. Doesn't mess up the connection
I think i figured it out, when i did some internet searches it says that apartments that are heavy concrete or lots of metal plus phones plugged in too close to wireless modems can cause it so hopefully that's my issue?

I can't believe this hasn't been stickied but this is how to apply the APN Settings to most ROM's that are Android 4.0+. Most ROM's have this information already baked in, some do not. I created this little tutorial not only for people that are new to this, but also for veterans who need a quick reference for the actual settings. Can we please get this Stickied?
APN Settings for MMS
1. Goto Settings
2. Under Wireless & Networks select "More..."
3. Select "Mobile networks"
4. Select "Access Point Names"
5. Press the Setting soft key
6. Select "New APN"
7. Select "Name" and enter "Verizon" and select "OK"
8. Select "APN" and enter "internet" and select "OK"
9. Select "MMSC" and enter "http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" and select "OK"
10 . Press the setting softkey
11. Select "Save"
12. In the APN screen select your new "Verizon" APN
13. Finished
Yeah I'm surprised this hasn't been stickied yet. I can't tell you how many times I've seen this asked for.

Something else you may add to this, the method of updating towers when you can't use a keyboard. That might be handy also.

okay guys, I have tried doing this and it kicks me out of APN back to the settings page. Every time. I have switched to phablet mode to stock and everything in between to try and be able to enter these settings. Is there anyway possible to do this without getting into the APN?

If you are looking for rom specific help you need to ask in that thread. I'm assuming you are trying pacman. I believe it has been addressed there already. But be sure you are hitting menu and save and not just backing out.

I believe someone mentioned a way to fix that. Something to do with clearing and rebooting maybe. Still this isn't the right thread for trouble shooting that rom. We don't want to clutter this thread with rom specific issues. Recheck that thread.
I'm on my way to work right now but it you don't find it ask in that thread and I will see if I can help later.

Edit: it's been too long since I've been on a stock ROM.
That doesn't help on AT&T based ROMs. That option would be removed

Your situation is exactly why AT&T is effing idiotic for removing the ability to disable LTE.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
I'm on custom ROM and below procedure worked on mine (though I'm on LTE 100% of time).
I copied from some thread some time back
-----------
From the phone dialer enter: *#197328640#
Umts -> Debug Screen -> Phone Control -> Network Lock -> RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON <- once you choose this option it will say "Now RAT Free Supporting" - this will allow you to change bands freely (no need to pull the SIM card) until your next reboot.
You can save *#197328640# in your contacts. I wasn't able to call the contact directly but from the dialer you can dial *#1 and it will pop up as a suggestion - you press that and it launches automatically. You can then go to Umts -> Debug Screen -> Phone Control -> Network Control <- this leads you to the screen you'd find in my original method with *#2263#
From here you can freely swap to whichever band you prefer and it will connect without a reboot required!
Note: After disabling RAT restrictions you can hit the menu button and choose back, twice. You'll then be at the menu list that includes "Network Control" aka *#2263# which is a little faster.

No. I tried on several myself just to verify (CM, AOKP, and a couple of others). It does work on AT&T stock ROM for certain though. It is the only thing that really keeps me from moving away completely from stock ROMS and/or other TW variants.

I was reading on another post which talked about the Note 2 and when I come to that menu.. I got this "RAT FREE SUPPORTING on" as option 4 while the other post said it should say.. "[4] NW LOCK NV Data INNITIALLIZ"....
What have I done wrong??
Mine is a AT&T i317 Note 2, but shouldn't this menu be identical for all variance?
Hope you can advise.
Thanks.
Im with Bell and I dont have the "RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON" option. Any alternative ?
Thanks.

Settings -> more -> Mobile Network -> Network Mode.
That works only on AOSP ROMs, not TW.

Ok. Are you using the AT&T version of the SGS3? What settings are you doing manually and they are not sticking? Do you mean it does not change at all, switches automatically after certain amount of time, or resets after reboot or airplane mode? There is not an app that I know of that does this directly. Most are more or less shortcuts to your "mobile networks" in settings and the Test menu found under USSD "*#*#4636#*#*". I have not found one that works the way you mention for myself (regardless of which phone I use) unless it is baked into the ROM.
Copied from some post here n backed up on my drop box. This should work on TW ROMs.

I have searched and not found the changes needed so I'm posing the question here:
Is there any way we can have the WiFi power saving feature turned off as a default when using the stock rooted galaxy s4 rom?
What needs to be changed/done to achieve this? Simple?
Thanks!
Go into your settings, Wifi, press the menu button, advanced, then set Keep Wifi on During Sleep to Always.

Not sure about the USSD code since I'm on a modified kernel but I am assuming you can turn it off from the menu as well. Set it to off if you can and then reboot and open the menu and see if that setting sticks. Just curious, how is the power savings mode affecting you? If there is something specific, let me know.
